longsleep build

[drmunxi_drm_fb_ioctl] *ERROR* bad cmd to drm fb.

Well what is the point? I already know that it does not work - i cannot remember that issue but essentially the problem is that the screen is pink (which is good) but nothing shows ever. I do not have the time to figure this out from the code alone. If someone provides a working image so i can look at why that image works and mine does not i might be willing to take another look.

agreed as there is nothing here that the allwinner team provided that suggests they got this to work at all.

I will be banging away at the BSP sources to see if anything turns up there

Mali 400mp2 is working very good on allwiner h3 (orange pi pc) on kodi, linux, android so they did get it to work.

unless I am mistaken that is a 32bit driver ...

Indeed, Cortex A7 is a 32bit architecture, whereas Cortex A53 is the 64bit successor of the A7 according to Arm documentation: Cortex-A53

Back in Mali topic, Allwinner already make the first release and I aware that still not usable. If somebody able to provide me a clear issues and requests, I will translate and provide back to engineer.

Has anyone with any knowledge of these issues expressed them to TLLIM??? 

If so, TLLIM, Has it been relayed AW?

The Odroid-C2 has a Mali-450 MP2 and also Cortex-53 cores. Any chance someone with that device may dissect the Ubuntu 16.10 in the Odroid and extract drivers so we can see what's needed to get the Mali blob to work?

Found OS image here. Anyone want to check?

The issue is the DRM stack from AllWinner as it is currently not working.

We have to await word from AllWinner regarding what is missing/clarification on their DRM driver(s). At this point it is not the Mali Blobs it's the DRM stack

The Allwinner engineer who involved in 64-bit MALI porting just becomes father and takes few days off. He will back in office on July 18, and I will follow up with him again.
